George Michael’s funeral still a guessing game as friends and fans still in the dark

They have been waiting in their car outside the cemetery where the singer will be laid to rest next to his mum.

A source said: “They are ready to crash the funeral. They are yards from the entrance. You can’t miss the car. It’s a great big Range Rover with personalised number plate.” George is expected to be buried at Highgate Cemetery, in north London, on Mothering Sunday."

It was believed the ceremony had been delayed for weeks after an initial post-mortem into his death on Christmas Day came back as “inconclusive”.
